Brief Summary

Goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether Isometric muscle training decrease pain improve function and enhance performance. Does Isometric exercise improve pain function and performance in bowlers? Researcher will compare the Isometric muscle training with Traditional therapy to examine that isometric exercise work on pain function and performance. Participants will receive isometric exercises for three days in week and will be followed up after two weeks total four weeks of trial(experimental group). Participants will receive traditional physical therapy treatment three days of week and followed up after two weeks total four weeks of trail (contril group)

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Disability of Arm Hand and Shoulder (DASH)

  The DASH questionnaire consists of 30 questions concerning upper limb function and symptoms. Patients figure out their ability to carry out each activity or the degree of their symptoms on a scale from 1 (no difficulty or no symptoms) to 5 (unable to perform the activity or vigorous symptoms). The results are then transformed into a standardized score, ranging from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating more disabilities

Effects Of Isometric Muscle Training On Shoulder Pain, Function And Performance In Bowlers

EXPERIMENTAL

The Isometric Exercise Program which comprises targeted exercises for declining pain, improving function and performance, exercises were focused only on shoulder flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, internal rotation and external rotation. Exercises were performed via Thera Bands, free weights and resistance. Each repetition was of 10 to 15 seconds and 10 to 15 number of repetition total of three sets according to FITT formula. Under the supervision of a therapist, these exercises were performed three times each week. Every training session lasts 35 to 40 minutes, with a 5-minute warm-up and a 5-minute cool-down in between. Instruction in the correct form and technique was provided to participants throughout the intervention, and their development was closely evaluated to guarantee safety and effectiveness. Total duration of 35 to 40-minute session three sessions per week total four weeks of intervention, reading will be taken on baseline and after 2nd week and 4th week.
